This lets you browse and add additional hard drives available to
the surveillance system over the network. If you are going to use
network storage for surveillance, your system needs to be on its own
dedicated network or VLAN, because network storage generate large
amounts of network traffic, which causes performance issues on
open networks.
The list shows up to 8 hard drives on the network (the maximum
allowed), including their server address, file path for saved
recordings, and type. It does not show any internal hard drives in
your recorder.
You can add NAS and IP SAN hard drives using the search button
at the bottom of the page. Select the type of hard drive and enter the
server address of the drive, then click
Search . If the recorder finds
that type of drive at that address, it presents its IP and file path. You
can then copy and paste the IP and file path into the list above.
SAMBA drives must be on a Windows-compatible network. You
must also know the user name and password of the drive; this
recorder will not use an unsecured SAMBA as they are a security
risk.
